Objective
The Kyoto protocol commits the industrialised countries to cut their overall greenhouse gas emissions by 8% below the 1990 level in the period 2008-2012. The development of innovative solutions is imperative to help fossil fuel based energy producers (30% of the CO2 emissions in the atmosphere) or massive CO2 producer industries to be in accordance with these International regulations.
The objectives of the project are to develop and test a new technology called Chemical Temperature Swing Adsorption Technology (CTSA) for extraction of 90% of the CO2 from flue gases of power plants and various industries and recycling of this CO2 as a high purity gas in various industrial processes as for example manufacture of lubricants and vegetable greenhouse. The CTSA technology is based on a new solid sorbent, which will present a highly porous chemical compound entering into reversible chemical reaction with carbon dioxide.
